Second, we give to them the same pleasure and companion- ship we have maintained during our years of school work. May they be blessed with happy thoughts and kindly feelings towards one another and towards us. Third, we bequeath to the Eighth Grade, a power handed down to us, — never to say or do anything against the Ninth Grade unless it be in accordance with the highest degree of love and honor. This power we bequeath enjoins them to be strictly faithful to their schoolmates, always speaking a kind word and answering all calls of duty. Fourth, we bequeath, in fee simple, share and share alike, to all that may come after us, our experience with Chemistry, namely, “Beware of acids, for they leave, if not a shining mark, at least a noticeable and destructive one. Fifth, we devise to all schoolmates this advice. It will cheer them in adversity and help them in prosperity : Let our successors never slacken or “give under” in their fight with temptations and difficulties. Let them improve every oppor- tunity that may present itself, so that they may become great
